AFAIK jsonb is not a specific format, it’s just a generic term for “a json equivalent binary representation”. The sqlite blurb says jsonb is generally smaller than json, but IIRC from when postgres added jsonb postgres’ is generally slightly larger.


PG's JSONB has a specification (well, inside PG, not a standard), and they won't change it except in backwards compatible ways (or, really, at all).

So does sqlite's. An implementation detail, even a necessarily stable one, does not a format make.
